"Finally." Evan said quietly and headed toward the evaluation center.

Along with him, there were two girls, who also stayed for last. Evan glimpsed them. They were both completely calm, and there was boundless confidence in their gaze.

Click.

The last trio stepped inside and the man in the white mantle closed the front door.

...

The evaluation center was one large, spacious room, quite unremarkable , except the huge, aquamarine crystal in the center. The crystal was glowing faintly, and a woman in a white mantle was standing beside it.

Seeing the last three applicants, the man put his hand to the crystal and waited for the test to begin.

The woman turned to the young people: "Come to the crystal and put your palms to it. At that moment, you should enter your "Nirvana", and then just concentrate. We'll run a quick check and let you know the results."

Evan and the girls nodded and then approached the crystal. Naturally, no one was going to explain how the method worked, they just had to follow the directions and that was it.

Whoosh.

As they were told, the three magicians put their palms to the crystal and entered "Nirvana".

Evan thought to himself, <Hmm, and how are they going to test our Class and Color of the "Warp"?

He was curious about the method itself, because only in the incredible places like the Academies of Magic, it could be done something like that. historical

When the trio entered "Nirvana", the woman made sure they closed their eyes and saw nothing, she made a sign to the man.

Whoosh.

The next moment strange changes began to happen to the crystal. Three purple dots appeared inside it, which gradually turned into creatures resembling spirits.

For a while they swirled around the crystal in a circle, until finally they separated and headed toward the palms of the young men.

That was the way the magician's Class and color of the "Warps" were tested. Of course, it wasn't all about spirits, it was about the crystal and a special spell of Summoning Magic.

After a couple of minutes, the man calmly said: "Mya Berry, the Class is "Creator", the 'Warp" is purple. Hollie Francis, the Class is "Creator", the "Warp" - purple. Evan Lynch, the Class is..."

...

<А? What is that?">. Thought to himself Evan being in "Nirvana".

Suddenly a purple spirit entered "Nirvana", Evan was discouraged by what was happening, but he didn't do anything about it. It was obvious that this was all some kind of test.

Evan watched the spirit closely. It swirled around Evan's crimson "Warp," and then flew inside. To know the color of the "Warp", the spirit simply had to see it, but to determine the Class, the spirit would have to enter the "Warp". It was a standard procedure, that hundreds of magicians had already gone through today, and Evan was no exception.

Whoosh.

The spirit came close to the crimson orb and circled around it once more to enter. Everything was going according to the usual scenario, but suddenly Evan realized something.

<My "Warp" is neither white nor purple, if they find out that it's crimson, I could be in trouble. But...what am I supposed to do?!>

Evan didn't know if that was good or bad, but he'd never heard of a magician who had crimson "Warp" . Even if it was a good thing, he would draw too much attention to himself from outsiders anyway, and he didn't want that.

Tremble.

Suddenly Evan felt strange, he couldn't describe the feeling, but at that moment all his attention was on another phenomenon.

A purple spirit had entered the "Warp" and was about to leave, but suddenly something inexplicable happened.

Whoosh.

The purple spirit tried to get out, but it failed. It was as if the crimson orb had thickened. The spirit did not know what was happening, and neither did Evan. He saw that something was not according to plan.

Whoosh.

Suddenly the scythe, black as the abyss, jerked up inside his "Warp". All this time it had been motionless, but now it was on the move.

Then the strange things began to happen.

A toothy mouth and one bloodshot eye slowly opened on the scythe blade. The spirit panicked and tried with all its might to get out, but all its attempts were unsuccessful.

The bloodshot eye stared intently at the spirit. It scrutinized the creature that had dared to invade its domain.

Whoosh.

The next moment the black scythe came into motion and sliced the purple spirit into hundreds of pieces at incredible speed. All Evan could see was a blurred image, his eyes unable to grasp the speed of the scythe.

Whoosh.

Hundreds of spirit parts headed toward the toothy mouth, and were quickly consumed by it.

Whoosh.

On the other side of the blade another mouth opened, and to Evan's surprise a whole and unharmed spirit emerged from it, just as it had been a few seconds before. Evan stared mesmerized at this startling and inexplicable scene.

Whoosh.

The purple spirit passed through the crimson "Warp", as if nothing had happened, and was outside. Next, the spirit flew upstairs and eventually emerged from "Nirvana".

Like the other two spirits, the third one returned safely to the aquamarine crystal and gave the man the information he needed.

"Evan Lynch, the Class - "Amplifier", the "Warp" - White." The man said calmly and took his hand away from the crystal.

At the same moment, the three purple spirits disappeared and the test was completely finished.

The woman informed the three rookie mages of the results and told them to leave.

"Wait for our instructions, this was only a test, there will be an exam soon."

The young men nodded and hurriedly left.

Staring at Evan's back, the woman thought to herself, <White?! Why is his "Warp" white! How is that possible?!">.

You could tell that her reaction was very strange. In the world of mages, white "Warps" is the most common thing, while purple is a sign of talent and genius. But somehow the woman was surprised that Evan was the only one of the three magicians who had a white "Warp".

...

Evan and the two girls returned to the square. He didn't know how to react to what had happened. He thought he would finally know his way, but suddenly he encountered a phenomenon unknown to him.

<White "Warp"?" Has he made a mistake? No, it's that scythe, it did something to the spirit that caused it to transmit the wrong information. There's no other way I can explain the evaluation of the magician in the white mantle. Moreover, what the fuck was that all about? That scythe just ate that spirit, but it had showed no signs of life before.>

Evan's mind was focused only on that. He could say with certainty that the scythe had influenced what the spirit had reported to the magician. But, there was something Evan was extremely unhappy about.

<I've been told that I have a white "Warp" and I'm an Amplifier, but how true is that information? Because of the actions of the scythe, the spirit determined the wrong color of the "Warp", which means my Class is also in doubt. Damn! How am I supposed to know what type of Magic I'm more prone to?>

While Evan was trying to figure out what had just happened and resenting the fact that he was still in the dark, three magicians in white mantles came out of the evaluation center.
